SIM Leadership Spotlight - August

"Leadership Spotlight" includes interviews with Chapter Presidents, SIM Board members, Management Council members and other SIM leaders. "Leadership Spotlight" will not only highlight SIM’s leadership and chapters, but it will offer insight from our leaders on topics, treads and issues facing the Society, our chapters and the IT industry.

A key value proposition of the SIM Atlanta Chapter (www.simatlanta.org) is the thought provoking and intellectually stimulating discussions at the monthly meetings. In a cordial and plush setting, a select group of senior IS practitioners and thought leaders share ideas and practices on important IS issues. The interaction formats range from the traditional single speaker presentations and panel discussions to the more innovative debates and audience-as-the-panel session.
